Stimulus Control 101: Creating Healthy Sleep Habits

In the podcast, Dr Baughn and Dr Zetoony discuss the importance of developing healthy sleep habits following the start of the New Year 2024. They touch on the importance of stimulus control in contributing to healthy sleep patterns. The hosts discuss five key strategies: going to bed only when tired, leaving the bed and returning only when sleepy, reserving the bed and bedroom for sleep and sex, waking up at the same time every day regardless of sleep quality, and avoiding daytime napping. These strategies form a part of broader sleep hygiene practices which are crucial for maintaining a consistent and restful sleep schedule. The hosts also review a magnesium-based sleep aid product and engage in a light-hearted discussion on a coffee blend gifted to them by a listener.
